Dell EMC PowerStore Quick Start Guide Page 2of 8

1. Unpack your system

Verify that you have the following:

Base enclosure:

2U base enclosure (1)

Network cables (4)

Rails (2)

Electrostatic discharge clip (1)

Power cables (6, only 2 required per enclosure)

Bezel, with key (1)

1Only 4 included for PowerStore 500T

Decide where to install the base enclosure

- Install your base enclosure in the lowest possible space, leaving 2U of space open at the bottom of your cabinet for

serviceability.

- If installing an expansion enclosure, install the expansion enclosure in the next available 2U space, directly above the base

enclosure or the last expansion enclosure in the system.

- Leave 4U at the top of the rack for network switches.

- It is recommended that you also leave 36 inches of clearance in front of and behind the rack for serviceability.

2. Install the rails into your cabinet

When installing the rails, ensure that the rail pins are lined up correctly:

•For the front end of the rail, the bottom pin of the rail goes through the middle hole of the lower U, and the top pin goes through

the top hole of the upper U.

•For the rear end of the rail, the bottom pin of the rail goes through the bottom hole of the lower U, and the top pin goes through

the top hole of the upper U.

1. Position the rail so the label FRONT is located at the front of the rack and facing towards the inside of the rack, while

orienting the rear of the rail to align level with the holes on the rear of the rack.

2. From the rear of the rack, pull the rail straight back until the latch is locked.

3. To install the front-end piece of the rail, press the blue latch release button until the latch rotates open.

Note: The pins on the back of the rails are in different locations than the front of the rails.

4. Pull the rail forward until the pins slide into the holes on the front of the rack, then release the latch to secure the rail in

place.

5. Repeat for the other rail.

Note: Racks are shown with square holes. The installation instructions are the same for racks with round holes. For

racks with threaded holes, remove the guide pin on the rails before installation.

3. Install the base enclosure onto the rails

The base enclosure is heavy and should be installed into or removed from a rack by two people. To avoid personal injury

and/or damage to the equipment, do not attempt to lift and install the base enclosure into a rack without a mechanical

lift and/or help from another person.

1. From the front of the rack, slide the base enclosure onto the rails.

Ensure that the base enclosure is flush with the front of the rack, fully seated in the cabinet, and does not easily slide out.

2. (Optional) If securing the system for shipment in the cabinet or for other unstable environments:

Locate the captive screw under each latch and tighten to the front of the cabinet using a #1 Phillips screwdriver.

Dell EMC PowerStore Quick Start Guide Page 4of 8

4. Record the Dell Service Tag

Locate and record the number from the black Dell Service Tag on the front of the base enclosure.

5. Install optional expansion enclosures

If you are not installing an expansion enclosure, continue to step 7.

If installing an expansion enclosure, determine which type of expansion enclosure you are installing:

25 Drive 2.5 Inch SAS (ESS25) Expansion Enclosure

For each additional expansion enclosure, repeat steps 2 and 3 to install the rails and expansion enclosure onto the rails.

24 Drive 2.5 Inch NVMe (ENS24) Expansion Enclosure

See the

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 500T

or the

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 1000, 1200,

3000, 3200,5000, 5200, 7000, 9000, and 9200

at https://dell.com/powerstoredocs to install the expansion enclosure into the

cabinet.

6. Connect the expansion enclosure to the base enclosure

See the

Label Sheets

included with the expansion enclosure for cabling details.

7. Connect the base enclosure to your switches

1. Identify which type of PowerStore model you are deploying: either a PowerStore T model appliance or a PowerStore X

model appliance

2. Choose the cabling instructions for the PowerStore model you are deploying:

Dell Service Tag

Dell EMC PowerStore Quick Start Guide Page 5of 8

Option A

If you are using the PowerStore T Model appliance:

Cable the management interface on both nodes to a management switch or network.

Note: You will require two additional network cables to complete this step.

Note: For more detailed instructions on recommended networking configurations, including how to

configure PowerStore T with top-of-rack switches, see the

PowerStore Networking Guide for

PowerStore T Models

at https://dell.com/powerstoredocs. Check with your network administrator to

determine which ports on your switches to use.

Option B

If you are using the PowerStore X Model appliance:

Using the supplied cables:

Connect the network cables on node A:

a. Port 0 of the embedded module connects to switch 1.

b. Port 1 of the embedded module connects to switch 2.

Connect the network cables on node B:

a. Port 0 of the embedded module connects to switch 2.

b. Port 1 of the embedded module connects to switch 1.

Note: These instructions show a minimum cabling configuration. For more detailed instructions on

recommended networking configurations, see the

PowerStore Networking Guide for PowerStore X Models

at https://dell.com/powerstoredocs. Check with your network administrator to determine which ports on

your switches to use.

8. Power up

a. Expansion enclosure

If installing PowerStore with an expansion enclosure, the order in which you power up the enclosures may differ. See

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 500T

or the

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 1000, 1200,

3000, 3200,5000, 5200, 7000, 9000, and 9200

at https://dell.com/powerstoredocs for power up details.

b. Base enclosure

Plug each power cable into the base enclosure power supply unit and close the retention bail over the base of the

power cable. Connect the other end of each power cable to PDU A and PDU B. After you connect the power cables,

the base enclosure automatically starts up.

9. Attach the bezel

1. Align the bezel with the expansion enclosure.

2. Gently push the bezel into place on the cabinet until it latches.

3. Lock the bezel with the provided key.

a. Base enclosure

b. Expansion enclosure

If installing PowerStore with an expansion enclosure, see the

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 500T

the

Installation and Service Guide for PowerStore 1000, 1200, 3000, 3200,5000, 5200, 7000, 9000, and 9200

https://dell.com/powerstoredocs for instructions.

Dell EMC PowerStore Quick Start Guide Page 7of 8

10. Discover your system

Next, discover your newly installed base enclosure, and then create a cluster.

Note: The procedure in this section only applies if you are physically present within the datacenter. If you do not have access

to the base enclosure, download and run the PowerStore Discovery Utility on a remote system or virtual machine to discover

your system. Refer to the networking guide for your model for more information on setting up your workstation and using the

PowerStore Discovery Utility.

Before you begin:

•(Optional) Download and run the PowerStore Network Validation Tool (NVT) to validate that your networks are

correctly configured. The NVT can be downloaded from Dell EMC Central Solutions at

https://central.dell.com/central/home.

•Ensure that your workstation’s network adapter is configured as follows:

oConnected directly to the PowerStore service port on Node B

oConfigured with a static IP address on the service LAN network (128.221.1.0/24) with no gateway address

defined (128.221.1.249; 255.255.255.0; no gateway)

oAble to ping the IP address of Node B’s service LAN port (128.221.1.251)

1. Connect your workstation or laptop to the service port on Node B of the base enclosure.

2. In a web browser, go to https://128.221.1.251.

Log on to PowerStore Manager and begin the initial configuration process using the following default credentials:

Username: admin

Default password: Password123#

Note: You must change this default password during initial configuration.

You can disconnect the workstation or laptop from the service port after the initial configuration process is complete.

What’s next?

Use the information from the Initial Configuration Worksheet in the networking guide to configure your cluster for use.
